Public Transport
VISSIM initially activates all PT on-street stops (displayed in bright red) that
are included in the highlighted route. Bus lay-bys are not automatically part
of a new PT line. To include a lay-by in a PT line route while the yellow band
is shown create an intermediate point by right clicking on the yellow band
and drag that point onto the bus lay-by. In the same way other route
modifications can be done.
In order to not modify accidentally a previously adapted alignment it is
necessary to use two more intermediate points as “pins” which enclose the
section to be modified. Thus when dragging an intermediate point only that
part of the route which is enclosed by the “pins” will be recalculated.
Any stop of either type that is added after a line has been created will be
inactive on all lines that pass it (the stop is shown in green).
If a PT line should not service a specific stop it can be deactivated for that
line (cf. section 6.5.2.5).
6.5.2.5 PT Line-specific Stop Data
The PT Line-specific stop data (PT Stop Data) can be accessed by doubleclicking
